Sometimes you have to think about how to restore your school certificate. This question raises many problems. Especially if you don't know how to act. The main problem is that the restoration of the mentioned document is almost never encountered in practice. And therefore, the algorithm of actions in case of damage or loss of a certificate of secondary education is not known to many people. Below we will look at this situation and how to resolve it. With proper preparation there should not be any problems.

Legal basis

How to restore a school certificate in Russia? To understand this issue, it is important to know what regulations and laws govern the relevant law.

The specifics of re-issuing school certificates are specified in the order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation (Ministry of Education and Science) number 115 dated February 14, 2014. The reasons for issuing the mentioned document, the principles of its execution and restoration are indicated here.

Important: citizens of the Russian Federation are issued 2 certificates - about basic general education (9 grades) and about complete secondary education (11 grades). The basis for the preparation of documents is the final certification. At the moment we are talking about the Unified State Exam.

Right of return

How to recover a lost school certificate? Is it even possible to do this? Or will you have to accept the loss of this document?

Restoring school certificates is a rare procedure in life, but anyone can face it. They cannot refuse this service, especially if a certain procedure is followed. Let's get to know him below.

Normal recovery

Now let's look at possible scenarios. Let's start with the simplest thing: with the usual re-issue of a certificate.

You will need to adhere to the following algorithm of actions:

Contact the police and write a statement about the loss of the document. This is an extremely important step that should not be neglected.
Write an ad in the local newspaper. It will tell you about the loss of the certificate and the invalidity of the corresponding document from the date of loss.
Prepare a certain list of papers. We'll talk about it in more detail later.
Fill out an application for reinstatement of your school certificate.
Apply with the prepared transcripts to the school where the document was presented. Usually at this point the person is given a form to request reinstatement of the certificate.
Receive the finished document at a pre-agreed time.

That's all. It would seem that there are no problems. Now it’s clear how to restore your school certificate. But this is only one of the possible scenarios. What difficulties might citizens face today?

School is closed

Sometimes it turns out that a person has lost his school certificate. We found out how to restore it. But this instruction is not suitable for everyone. Over time, educational institutions may close. What to do in this case?

In order to reissue lost documentation about school education, you will have to adhere to the previously proposed algorithm of actions. The difference is that the application for restoration of the certificate will not be submitted to the school, but to the local education department.

As practice shows, such situations are extremely rare. Schools are almost never closed. And therefore, re-issuing certificates, if necessary, causes a minimum of hassle.

Reorganization carried out

How to restore a school certificate if lost? It is not difficult to do this with timely preparation. In particular, if you adhere to the previously discussed algorithm of actions.

In some cases, school educational institutions are subject to reorganization or renaming. What to do in this situation to restore educational documents?

You must adhere to the previously stated instructions. The difference will be that along with the certificate, the citizen will be given certificates and extracts about the “reforms” carried out. Otherwise, there will be no problems or hiccups.

Terms of service provision

How to recover a lost school certificate? Answering a question like this should no longer be difficult. It remains to consider a few key points of the entire procedure.

For example, how long will it take to consider a petition in the established form? The answer depends on what kind of certificate the citizen requests.

You can focus on the following indicators:

up to 30 days - consideration of an application for restoration of a school certificate for 11 grades;
7 days - submitting an application for reissue of an education document for 9 classes.

In real life, applicants are often asked to pick up their school certificates in May-July, when they are issued to students at an educational institution. You may not agree to such a decision and insist on a faster production of a duplicate document.

Information for application

We found out how to restore your school certificate. What certificates will be required from a citizen to implement the task?

Typically the list of documents includes the following:

application of the established form;
citizen identity card.

Additionally you may need:

adoption certificates;
marriage or divorce records;
certificates of change of surname/name/patronymic;
documents confirming the change of gender identity of a citizen.

If the applicant’s personal data has not changed since school years, you can get by with the first list of documents.

Filling Features

Now a few words about what nuances of filling out the restored certificate will have to be taken into account. This is a rather important point, but it does not directly concern the applicant.

Here are the principles that should be followed when restoring your school education document:

The certificate is prepared on forms that are used to issue relevant extracts at the time the school graduate applies to the institution.
The received statement will necessarily indicate the word “duplicate”.
Data about the applicant and his academic performance will be entered from his personal file. It must be kept at the school facility.
If a duplicate of the certificate supplement cannot be completed and produced, the education document will be issued without the corresponding insert.

Conclusion

So, we found out how to restore a school certificate, as well as how to act in this or that case. All this must be done in accordance with the instructions given above.

In general, the following situations may serve as grounds for re-issuing a certificate:

damage to a document;
loss or theft of an education certificate;
detection of typos or inaccuracies in the document;
change of personal data.

In any case, now you know how to cope with the task. Everything is extremely simple and clear.

Important: the waiting period for an education document increases if a citizen sends an application by mail. Therefore, it is better to act personally.

The situation is as follows.
I applied to the school for a duplicate of my secondary education certificate.
I submitted all the documents, they haven’t given me a duplicate for about two years, each time they find reasons not to do it. I wanted to continue my studies, but without a certificate I don’t have the opportunity to do this.

File a complaint with the prosecutor's office, they will conduct an inspection and then it will be easier for you to get a duplicate.

At school 143 in St. Petersburg, I submitted an application to the director for a duplicate certificate due to its loss (he graduated from school in 1988 and moved several times, and there was no need for a certificate). However, they ask me for a certificate from the police department at my place of registration in the Nevsky district. They set a pick-up time three times, but there is still no certificate.
I am a group 2 disabled person, I live with my mother in the Admiralteysky district, a certificate is needed for employment through a rehabilitation center.

Sincerely. Kuzavkov I.V.

The law does not regulate this. In fact, in the future you can only use a duplicate of the certificate, it is to it that the entire legal completeness of this document is transferred, the use of the original may lead to problems due to its loss of legal force.

Actions to take if you lose your 9th grade certificate

Documents indicating completion, including 9th grade, are among those that are required upon admission to a higher education institution or employment. Its loss or theft entails some problems. In order to avoid them, you need to have information on how to restore your 9th grade certificate if it is lost.

According to paragraph 26 of section. 5 The procedure for obtaining a duplicate document should be followed:

If the loss of the certificate was discovered, you must contact the nearest police station, where you can write a statement about the loss or theft of the document. The application must be submitted in two copies, one of which (certified) remains with the applicant.
It is also necessary to submit an application for loss of certificate to the editors of local newspapers with advertisements that are in demand among interested buyers. In this case, you should definitely make sure that you have a document or certificate confirming the submission of the application. This will prove necessary later.
The next step is to contact the head of the secondary educational institution whose certificate was lost. You must submit an application to the directorate of the organization, which will indicate a request for the issuance of a duplicate of the lost certificate. The school director must contact the police for confirmation of the incident. In confirmation of this, he will be provided with a receipt for submitting the relevant advertisement to the media. If no one responds to the submitted application in the media over the next three days, the missing certificate will automatically be declared invalid.
Next, you need to work closely with the head of the school whose graduation certificate has disappeared. Before proceeding with the preparation of a duplicate document, the director of the secondary school will definitely double-check all the specified data (the presence of a submitted statement to the police, as well as a copy of the statement to the local media). Only after the manager receives confirmation of the above actions, he has the right to instruct his employees to issue a duplicate of the lost certificate.

After all the above actions have been carried out and confirmed, the countdown begins during which the applicant will be issued a duplicate of the lost certificate.

Only by following the above procedure can you be sure that a duplicate of the lost certificate will be received as soon as possible.

Important nuances

It is also recommended to take into account some points that must be observed if a problem arises in the case of how to restore a certificate for the 9th grade in another city or when the secondary educational institution was liquidated at the time of filing the application.

In this case, you must adhere to the following recommendations:

Just as in previous cases, it is necessary to submit an application to the nearest poly branch, as well as advertise in local media offices. This will be clear evidence that the 9th grade completion document was lost or stolen.
In addition, it is necessary to submit an appropriate application for the issuance of a duplicate of the lost certificate to the city or district department of education. In this case, the issuance period does not change in any way, but remains exactly the same - 3 days (subject to the presence of all factors present).

Exactly the same scheme of action should be followed if the secondary preschool institution has been renamed or reorganized.

Regardless of whether the certificate is lost or stolen, the application process does not change in any way. In addition, the period for issuing a duplicate in any case does not exceed those days. This is subject to all supporting documents.

I would also like to note that even if the loss or theft of a certificate is discovered without any particular need for the above documents, this must be immediately reported to the police department, and all necessary actions must be taken to restore the document.

If unforeseen complications arise, it is recommended to seek the help of experienced lawyers.
